this plot kinda reminds me of tenetAssassinator wrote: ↑January 16th, 2021, 5:35 am Torchic walked into Carnegie Hall, taking in the aura of the place. She felt oddly calm in the midst of the crowd. However, her moment of serenity was interrupted when Pepperonipi bumped into her.
"Sorry! I'm trying to find the concessions stand, would you happen to know- Oh, it's you! Nice outfit!" Pepperonipi quickly picked himself up from the floor as he apologized to Torchic.
"Don't wory, it's all good. And thanks, I like your shirt! It has a nice pattern. Do you know where the entrance is?" Torchic seemed to partially be in her own world of calm as she spoke despite the sudden disturbance.
"Sure, go to the left and it should be on the right side." Before he could speak anything more, Torchic seemed to disappear into the crowd without a trace, leaving him puzzled. She had already began making her way there, not wanting any more disturbances while she walked. It was strange to her how tranquil she was right now, but she wanted to enjoy it while it lasted. Soon, Torchic made it to the entrance and walked towards her seat.
"Torchic, finally! We've been keeping your seat for you for ages." LittleMissNyan ran over to her as she spoke, hugging her upon impact. Sneepity greeted her, but quickly went back to her game of Pictionary with EwwPhysics and Silverbreeze. Lumosityfan invited the two girls to play a game of Among Us with him, Umaroth, and HugoTroop as they sat down in their seats. Jaspattack and BennyTheJett, however, were a bit concerned.
"Have any of you seen TheChiScientist, Nydauron, Fyren, and Booknerd? I haven't heard or seen them here at all..." BennyTheJett voiced his concern to a rather absent audience who, in the meantime, had preoccupied themselves with other things.
"Sorry we're late! Do you know where our seats are?" Fyren spoke to Pepperonipi quickly as she, TheChiScientist, Booknerd, and Nydauron ran into the performance hall.
"They're the ones next to pikachu4919 and gz839918. And don't worry, you're right on time. The concert will be starting any minute now." Fyren went and sat down at her seat just as the orchestra went on stage and began tuning their instruments, the conductor silencing them after a few moments. The conductor then began counting silently, giving the tempo right before the orchestra began playing Danse Macabre.
Everyone in the hall was practically entranced by the music, unable to take their focus from it. Not a single person so much as moved while the violins pierced the hall with their melody. Silverbreeze, however, realized something. She pulled out the sheet music and looked at it closely; it was a baconian. She quickly translated it into plaintext as the end of the end of the piece approached. It read out fire type number two hundred and fifty five. Torchic. Just when the last note was about to be played, she ran over to Torchic and shielded her as everything went dark in an explosion of fire.
"Please, someone, WAKE UP!" Torchic cried out in desperation as she looked over the unconscious bodies littered across the floor. The wall behind the stage had been completely obliterated as debris fell from the ceiling with every slight movement. The first few rows of seats were now burning in a fire, creating a makeshift curtain between the fallout and the rest of the building. As she kept crying out, she noticed a phone light up from a text next to her. She picked it up, ready to dial for help, when she read the contents of the message:
Congratulations, you're still alive. Why don't you listen to a little victory song? https://ufile.io/xuees0ju
